Hypersurface

The use of merely vertical walls was called into question and instead all surfaces are "activated." All vertical elements in the project are designed to engage and facilitate function and use in the project. Instead of walls merely dividing space, the activated surfaces in the project absorbed function (shelving, storage, human geometry). These hyper-surfaces also offer function (display zones and other interpretative surfaces). Further, the entire space was comprised of two horizons: one at 3'6" for the developing youths and the other at normal head height for adults.
